28-3-2018
Al Moueen Center for Support and Empowerment affiliated with the Social Welfare Institutions- Dar Al Aytam, organized yesterday a panel discussion entitled, ‘Social responsibility towards women with disabilities’ under the patronage of the minister of state for women’s affairs, Jean Ogassapian. On the occasion, the deputy general manager of the Special Needs Department at Dar Al Aytam, Salwa Zaatari, stressed that a citizen with special needs, whether or woman, is a competent partner ambitious to contribute to change, development and make a qualitative difference in the nation. “It is time to launch a network of permanent cooperation and coordination between the State and associations involved with disabilities to exchange information, consultation and recommendations to help persons with disabilities obtain their recognized rights,” Zaatari stated. She also hoped women and girls with special needs be a priority topic in the annual administrative and organizational agendas of the ministry of state for women. “We look forward to the day where we can make of the story of a woman with special needs a success story of society itself,” Zaatari said. For his part, Ogassapian, pressed the need to provide persons with special needs with the required special care, stressing that this responsibility lies primarily on the State and its institutions. In conclusion, Dar Al Aytam beneficiaries from LSBD in Baabda presented live testimonies.
